On February 17, 2009, the Judge ordered a police raid at the premises of the brothel called “El deseo” which was conducted by the Chief of the Human Trafficking Division of the Federal Police from Argentina on 20 February at 00:20 hours.

Both C.V.Z. and C.M.L., asserted at that time, they were there against their will, they were deceived about the type of work they would do and asked for help to leave that place.
G.E.N. and O.G.B. were responsible for controlling the other girls and accompanying them everywhere they went.
Therefore, the Court decided to include their arrest and include them in the trial as participants of the crime.

On March 18, 2009 the Federal Court proceeded to the arrest of the defendant M.A.S., as the woman who captured, deceived, and convinced the victim to move to the city of Resistencia, handing her the tickets he had purchased for the transfer.

The representative of the Public Prosecutor stated "... In the case of G.E.N. and O.G.B., I will ask for absolution in this regard. Not credited, in my opinion with sufficient certainty, that these two girls have to do with the crime investigated, in my opinion these girls are victims too ... ".

The Court granted the request of the prosecution, absolving G.E.N. and O.G.B.

It was established that the transfer of C.V.Z. to the brothel was for purposes of sexual exploitation by D.L.A. who was the main beneficiary, since he was the owner of the premises.

It was also proved during the audiences that C.V.Z., was surprised when she reached her destination at the Brothel, showing their displeasure because, she was told that the job was another, as a waitress, serving at a bar and not exercising prostitution.

As a result of the abundant evidences gathered during the trial, the Court reached to an absolute certainty regarding the participation of the defendants M.A.S. and D.L.A., on a direct intent, as co-authors of the crime of trafficking a person over eighteen years (art. 145 bis of the Penal Code).
The action of the defendant M.A.S. are duly accredited as having captured and transported C.V.Z., who is 18 years old, from the city of Tres Isletas to the city of Rio Gallegos, by deception and abuse of her position of vulnerability for the sole purpose of sexual exploitation.

The Court also concluded that, the victim's consent was also flawed by abuse of a position of vulnerability. The victim was exploited by the accused and she was placed in a situation of being conditioned to provide sexual services for which it was carried over 3,000 miles from his home.

Regarding D.L.A., the Court analyzed all the circumstances such as the  time and place in which the event took place, his old way of life, his socio-economic situation, his crime awareness and, especially, the resources used by him for the effort criminal

Under such understandings the Court thought fair and reasonable the penalty of four years in prison, legal incidents and respective legal costs.

Regarding M.A.S., the Court I considered fair and reasonable the penalty of three years and six months in prison, legal incidents and respective legal costs.
